An animal’s skull is perfectly adapted to its environmental lifestyle. Learn how to identify different skull features and how they relate to an animal’s position on the food chain. This program will provide opportunities to practice ID skills using museum-quality skull replicas and is an excellent follow-up to the mammal section of the Master Naturalist program.
